Sino-US meet signals a step forward to build ties in 12 yrs
WASHINGTON. Oct 28: President Bill Clinton will meet with Chinese President Jiang Zemin in the privacy of the White. House residence Tuesday night.,, hoping to narrow their differences a day before their much heralded summit, reports AP.
Administration officials said Monday the leaders would talk Informally for about an hour without other officials present. It will be more of a social meeting than an attempt to address disputes about human rights, trade and arms sales, the officials said.
The purpose is to try to build the same kind of ties with Jiang that Clinton has found effective in problem-solving with other major leaders such as Russian
President Boris Yeltsin, British Prime Minister Tony Blair and German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, said the officials, speaking on condition of anonymity.
After a flight from Hawaii, Jiang arrived Monday night at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia. where a fife and drum corps played an 18th century march to welcome the Chinese leader.
Jiang heads to Washington on Tuesday afternoon after a stop in the restored colonial town of Williamsburg, Virginia, where exhibits showcase the roots of America's democracy. Protesters from the International Campaign for Tibet and Amnesty International said they planned to demonstrate In Williamsburg against human
rights abuses by the Chinese government.
In Washington. Jiang will stay at Blair House, the government guest house across from the white House.
Wednesday's meeting will be the first US-China summit in 12 years, signaling the biggest step towara normalising relations since the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.
Administration officials say the meeting itself - rather than any agreements — is the most significant development.
Even so, Clinton and Jiang are expected to announce that China will limits its arms exports to Iran and end nuclear cooperation with the Middle Eastern country, which the United States accuses of sup-
porting terrorism. That would clear the way for Clinton to approve the first export of advanced nuclear reactor technology to China.
The expected accord drew strong criticism from two key Republican senators. Jesse Helms of North Carolina, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and Richard Shelby of Alabama, chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
Even before Jiang reached Washington, demonstrations £ rotesting religious persecution i China began. Carrying white candles, several hundred people held a prayer rally near the White House on Monday.
White House press secretary Mike McCurry said Clinton
would act in the best interests of national security. "And it would be manifestly in our interest to encourage the People's Republic to make important new commitments with respect to technology transfer, specifically in sensitive missile technology areas." McCurry said. "That would be a step forward."
After his White House summit. Jiang will meet Thursday with members of Congress, often the most outspoken critics of China.
House Speaker Newt Gingrich said lawmakers would be ’courteous but very firm and very clear about what we believe in."
"We re going to talk about human rights in China, with religious persecution, we’re going
to talk about the report that there is literally a business in body parts, which is gruesome." Gingrich said. We re going to raise the issue of the Chinese sale of missiles to Iran and nuclear weapons to Iran and Pakistan."
Chinese officials say allegations of organ sales, such as Gingrich alluded to. were "sheer fabrication" and that the sale of human organs is prohibited in China.
In another summit-related development. China and the United States extended a space launch services agreement in effect since 1989 The new accord sets out clear terms for Chinese pricing of its space launch services to low earth orbit.
